GET 48 HILLS SATIRIST JOEL SCHECHTER'S BOOK 'ROGUES GALLERY'
The rants, jests, and immodest proposals in Rogues Gallery target a collection of felons, ne'er-do-wells, White House demolitionists, and undertaxed billionaires. Many of the comic accusations levied against these felons and bad boys were originally published by 48 Hills. Collected here for the first time are classic reports on the demolition of the West Wing (not just the East Wing!) of the White House; a special cell to be built on Alcatraz for the President of the United States; and San Francisco as the new billionaire sanctuary. The book also includes illustrations by noted graphic artist Sue Coe. To order a copy for $12, contact jschech@sfsu.edu.
